â€śTeam Workâ€ťâ€śTalent wins games, but teamwork wins championships.â€ťÂ
Have you ever asked yourself whatâ€™s the â€śkeyâ€ť to success? Itâ€™s not how talented you are or how much you know about a specific topic.Â Often times a person can be gifted with many talents and strengths but if they donâ€™t apply hard work to their talent nor have a strong support system they can be deemed destined to fail. Â If youâ€™ve ever move to a new city or even a different country you will have experienced this first hand.Â When your new to a place, where no one knows you.Â You will definitely feel the need for a good support system â€śA Teamâ€ť of friends or family to help you reach your goals.
Letâ€™s imagine a really strong and skilled athlete who moves alone to a new area, they will arrive hopeful and excited with all of their talents and skills ready for action.Â But if no one knows who them, or provided them help, they are limited in the thing they can do to forward their career.Â In fact, they are missing a key factor: a good TEAM; people who believe in them, cheer for them, make them aware of his weaknesses and strengths and share and support their passion. Without this crucial factor their chances to fail increase and they can end up mentally and emotionally drained and frustrated. Â We as humans are designed to be social and share our hopes and dream. It is indeed a beautiful blessing to be part of a team of people who believe in you, who share a passion and who will be a loyal support system, that they can turn to in challenged times and enjoy your victories with.
As a mom I know there is nothing more valuable than having my kids to learn to stand up against bullies, learn that they can prevail when in difficult situations and all the while learning the value of friendship from having a strong team behind them that they can cherish and remember for the rest of their lives. Teaching this value early gives them a bright future and secures a happy, productive and successful life, not because they will conquer everything all the time, but because no matter if they lose or win the battle they will always value the importance of team.
